Postby stolen_starz on October 2nd, 2003, 1:52 pm
Hey guys. I have to do a speech and I'm doing it on steps taken for a roller coaster to be built all the way up to when it's actually ready to ride and I know there are superman construction pics on here, but I know there's a site with Raging Bull ones too.. if anyone remembers what site that is, could you please post it? Thanks! :) If you know of any other construction pics or pics of test runs or anything, please let me know where ANY are. Thank you so much!!!

Oh and especially if you know of any wooden ones. I've never seen construction pics of a wooden coaster being built and I can't find any. :(

Have you seen the CoasterForce Constrution page? It gives a very good description of what goes on to build a new coaster.And about Construction pics of a wooden coaster, try looking here. If you click on the construction link there are some pics of Medusa being built.
